From the bidding looks like dealers have pushed the price up pretty quickly - one within 3 minutes of it being listed...

I think they are. I believe the early hub caps were superseded sometime mid to late 60.

...I bet you don't........ :lol:

on the mini forum it says..

....'Someone had stuck a sticker on the seat rail that was printed out by a label printer saying "heritage shell" and the number that matches on the V5.


I wonder if whoever has done this is aware that heritage shells have their own vin marker plate, but I'm sure a sticker that says 'heritage shell' makes it all legit

858cc - would I have to notify the DVLA of the change? Would it also be classed as modified, therefore affecting the insurance?

10cc - I'm not in love.
